Arctial is a joint venture backed by leading global industrial shareholders, including Rio Tinto, Mitsubishi Corporation and Fortum. The ambition is to contribute to Europe’s industrial renewal and strategic autonomy. 

 

After more than three decades without new primary aluminium production in continental Europe, this project marks a significant industrial milestone. The facility will leverage fossil-free electricity and proven technology to produce aluminium with a carbon footprint significantly below today’s averages.

 

If realized, the project is expected to create around 1,200 direct jobs and several thousand indirect jobs in the region.

 

This is a formative moment. The team we assemble now will define how the facility is designed, how safety and quality standards are set, and how operational excellence is delivered for decades to come.

 

Joining Arctial means helping to produce low-carbon aluminium in Europe — for Europe.
